Philip Rivers is a homeschool guy who doesn't trust the government to educate his children

Phil Rivers... that's a guy that does not trust the government to educate his children. No. His 15 children.

Philip Rivers' children have attended both Catholic and private schools, not strictly homeschooling.

The Jaguars have a better chance of making the playoffs than the Bears or Bills

[Big Cat]: Which of those three [Bears, Bills, Jaguars] do you think have the best chance of going to the playoffs? [Blake Bortles]: I would have to say us.

In 2016, the Jaguars finished 3-13, the Bears finished 3-13, and the Bills finished 7-9. None made the playoffs.

The Jaguars will have a better season in 2016 than they did in 2015

You guys [the Jaguars] are going to have a better year than last year. That's just my take.

The 2015 Jaguars went 5-11. The 2016 Jaguars went 3-13, which was a regression.

Brett Favre's durability was due to an 'inconclusive' John Thomas sign

If you think back to some of the great quarterbacks, Brett Favre was probably—his John Thomas sign was probably always inconclusive, right? Because he had such little win. That's why he never missed a game because the doctors, they couldn't pinpoint any of his injuries because he didn't have any shadows pointing anywhere.

This is a satirical medical theory based on a celebrity scandal; it is not factually true.

When playing in Cleveland, you should throw to the side of the field farthest from the lake to avoid lake-effect snow

One thing that jumped off the page at me was the part about lake effect snow... as something that you can take away and practice from this, when you play up in Cleveland, throw the football to the side of the field that's farthest away from the lake to avoid the snow as much as possible.

Lake effect snow generally covers a broad geographic area; you can't avoid it by throwing to one side of a 53-yard wide football field.

Teams playing in Seattle should use snow machines to drown out the crowd noise

I also learned that snow is a sound absorber. So like if you ever have a game up in Seattle, I don't know if you can like rent a snow machine, but to kind of drown out the crowd noise a little bit, maybe you could just like drop a bunch of snow on them.

While snow does absorb sound, the logistics and legality of using snow machines to dampen crowd noise are non-existent in the NFL.
